Experience THE powerful NVIDIA PASCAL ARCHITECTURE

Infinite Compute for Infinite Opportunities

The revolutionary NVIDIA Pascal™ architecture is purpose-built to be the engine of computers that learn, see, and simulate our world—a world with an infinite appetite for computing. From silicon to software, Pascal is crafted with innovation at every level.

Five Technological Breakthroughs of Pascal

The NVIDIA Pascal architecture is built on five technological breakthroughs, enabling a new computing platform that is disrupting conventional thinking from the desk-side to the data centre.

16 Nanometer FinFET for Unprecedented Energy Efficiency

With 150 billion transistors built on bleeding-edge 16 nanometer FinFET fabrication technology, Pascal GPU is the world's largest FinFET chip ever built. It is engineered to deliver the fastest performance and best energy efficiency for workloads with near-infinite computing needs.

AN EXPONENTIAL LEAP IN PERFORMANCE

Pascal is the most powerful compute architecture ever built inside a GPU. It transforms a computer into a supercomputer that delivers unprecedented performance, including over 5 TeraFLOPS of double precision performance for HPC workloads. For deep learning, a Pascal-powered system offers over 12X leap in neural network training—reducing training time from weeks to hours—and a 7X increase in deep learning inference throughput compared to current-generation GPU architectures.

NVIDIA NVLink for Maximum Application Scalability

Pascal is the first architecture to integrate the revolutionary NVIDIA NVLink™ high-speed bi-directional interconnect. This technology is designed to scale applications across multiple GPUs, delivering a 5x acceleration in interconnect bandwidth compared to today's best-in-class solution.

CoWoS with HBM2 for Big Data Workloads

Pascal architecture unifies processor and data into a single package to deliver unprecedented compute efficiency. Using an innovative approach to memory design, CoWoS® (Chip-on-Wafer-on-Substrate) with HBM2 provides a 3x boost in memory bandwidth performance over NVIDIA Maxwell™ architecture.
